Sometimes I think about how Marleau’s “wow she’s really got you blushing Roz” is the same sort of shit that he’s probably said to a bunch of other hockey players/bunch of other Raiders and every other time he’s gotten a wedding invite within a year.
And that doesn’t happen with Ilya because it takes them 10 years
Which is ancient for hockey romance! Hockey guys get married within a year of dating, this is normal! And Ilya getting married young having kids young that would be the established track and that’s what Cliff is expecting of him and then he doesn’t do that.
Because it’s only ever Shane. Shane who makes him blush and smile at his phone like The Guys do when they’re looking at the texts their future wives/future mother to their children send them.
